"GBA Games"

Looking at my GBA collection, most of the games I have are rather immersive games such as Zelda and RPGs.

If any one could recommend some good pick up and play games I would be grateful. I've Sonic Advance 1&2 but thats about it, and I'm planning on getting Advance Wars.

Well, I've always found Konami Krazy Racers to be very to just pick up and play, it may be a Mario Kart rip-off, but don't dismiss it straight away.

Doom and Wario Land 4, whilst they are adventure-type games, you can pick them up at anytime and have a go on them. Doom is probably the best GBA game out, because it manages to create a great atmosphere, immerse you, but it has a great pick up and play value to top it all off.

If you've got a GameCube, and Metroid Prime, Fusion may be worth a look, if not only for the extra's, but if not, it is a very immersive game and you'll need to take lots of time playing it, a lot more than the other games I've mentioned.

If you're not too bothered about 1-Player adventures and want a game solely for Multiplayer, Bomberman may be a good choice, alough I think you might need multiple cartridges.

Bomberman Tournament can be played on a single cart multiplayer.

And there's that "Made in Wario" game that's only available on import, for now...

kuru Kuru, Kururin or Chu Chu Rocket - plenty of p-u-a-p value there.

I've played that and I've got to say, it's brilliant. It's the kind of game you never give up, so many mini-games that require very quick reactions, you'll never give up. As soon as it's on SR's database, I'll be pre-ordering it.

I'd say this would be the perfect game for Pick up 'n' Play fans, although those looking to show off the power of their GBA, maybe not the best title.

I was looking at Gradius earlier, is it like the SNES version with extras or an entirely new game?

i think its a shame that since metroid fusion is probably the last metroid game on gba (if nintendo follows its pattern) they could have at least made quite long u can beat it in 3 hours

but im glad its not a rehash of super metroid
any news on metroid 5

To be honest, I want Super metroid to be re-released on GBA - It could be released as Super Metroid Advance and include some extras like the original Metroid and/or Metroid 2 as playable games.

what like the new zelda games
